Friends, Gossipers, NeXTers, lend me your disk space... I've been using Mathematica to generate lots of graphics lately. I really get into the animation of grids and contour maps. BUT will somebody please tell me why I have 88% of my hard disk left, that's what 70 Meg of spare space? And after I load in 160 images, my df tells me that I am 100%. Then the NeXT thrashes itself into getting a NeXT tool shoved up it's OD hole to get out my OD, which is also running full tilt, so I can hit the old command-alternate-* (better than pulling the plug, for those who didn't know) and reboot from scratch because it's chance if I can even remotely log in. Sometimes, if I'm lucky, I can continue doing Mathematica by closing files before opening new ones, but that disk space never seems to come back unless I reboot. Anybody hit these snags??? Lemme know by good old regular e-mail because my NeXT is a little busy.
